NAME

       mia-3dmaskseeded - Mask an area by seeded region growing

SYNOPSIS

       mia-3dmaskseeded -i <in-file> -o <out-file> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-3dmaskseeded  3D  image  segmentation  based  on  region  growing  from  a seed point.
       Neighboring points are added, either when their intensity is equal or higher than that  of
       the  seed  point, or of the intensity is lower or equal then that of the neighoring point.
       After region growing is finished, this mask is used to zero out the region in the original
       image yielding the resulting image.

OPTIONS
